JExpenseCSV2PDB JExpenseCSV2PDB - A Java Jar File to create the built-in ExpenseDB.pdb for the Palm. It should be compatible with all kinds of Palm os. Up to now the file format of the ExpenseDB has not been changed. Use JExpense2CSV to generate the IFO file. The ifo file is supposed to be called like the CSV file with the suffix IFO (Example: CSVFile.CSV -->> CSVFile.CSV
Issue Manager Issue Manager - The standard To Do application is great if you want to track things that *you* have to do, but managing issues needs something a bit different. Issue Manager attempts to address this. Anyone that has to manage issues on a regular basis: project and product managers, software developers, etc. will find this software useful. Changes since v1
JAddressCSV2PDB JAddressCSV2PDB - A Java Jar File to create the built-in AddressDB.pdb for the Palm. It should be compatible with all kinds of Palm os. Up to now the file format of the AddressDB has not been changed. Use Address2CSV to generate the IFO file. The ifo file is supposed to be called like the CSV file with the suffix IFO (Example: CSVFile.CSV -->> CSVFile.CSV
Proview Proview is a development tool that creates hierarchical and flat views from profiling data created with the POSE emulator.
Find out exactly where your software is spending its execution time and remove performance bottlenecks in your software
Peal: Palm ELF ARM Loader Peal is an ELF postlinker and loader for Palm OS. It allows ARM code to use global variables and function pointers without restriction
FileHex FileHex is a Palm hexadecimal file editor for programmers. It is the most widely used editor of its kind on the platform, and can handle file sizes of up to four megabyte with ease. A great tool that allows you to edit and analyze the contents for the data of any type of file.
· Support for the Win/Dos and Unix/Mac of any format of file
SyncNotify SyncNotify is an app for the other applications that need a hotsync to be installed properly. This app does not SIMLUATE a hotsync, it just makes the receiving application believe that one occured.
For example, I copied the IBM Java VM from my SD card to my palm. Well, the application was unusable because it needs to be synced to install properly
CheckPRC CheckPRC is a useful Windows tool for Palm developers to identify compatibility problems and maximise the number of users who can access their applications.
It can be used to determine the earliest version of Palm OS that a Palm application may run on, and to identify all the Palm OS functions that the application uses
Other Software by developer «Nathan Whitmore»:
LegacyRun Run non-multitasking (legacy) applications in Multitasker
Multitasker Multitasker - This program allows you to run 4 multitasking-enabled yBasic applications at the same time(three in the background and one in the foreground).
NOTE:You cannot run compiled applications or non-multitasking-enabled yBasic applications with this tool
StuffToTurnIn StuffToTurnIn - This is a program designed to remind you to turn in assignments. It creates lists ofg the assignments that are due for each day of the week and the period when they are due. You also tell it when each of your periods start, so it will beep when a period starts and you have something to turn in
FingerReader FingerReader - NOTICE:This application requires Multitasker 0.99 or higher in order to run
This is a fingerprint-reading simulator for your Palm, similar to Thumb Scan or Fingerscan
IR Messenger IR Messenger - NOTICE: This application is designed to be run under Multitasker 0.99 or higher. Running it under an earlier version of Multitasker may have unexpected results, and it simply won't work if you just run it directly from the "programs" menu. See the README file for instructions
IRDA Tag IRDA Tag - Multitasker 0.99 Enhanced
Note:This program requires Multitasker 0.99(or possibly higher). Other versions may produce unpredictable results, and it will not work just from yBasic's programs menu
This is a basic laser-tag game for the Palm that works using the infrared ports on the Palm devices. It supports all of the basic laser tag features
MultiTunes MultiTunes - This program allows you to play propietary music files in Multitasker. The music format is highly compressed, so files usually ake up less than 32 kilobytes. This program also supports background playback, so you can use other Multitasker applications while listening to your music
ModIt ModIt - This is a Multitasker-enhanced program that allows you to modify assignments in StuffToTurnIn from within Multitasker. It also creates a backup of your data each time you modify it, guarding against mistakes.
Note that this application requires both Multitasker 0.99(or posibly higher) and StuffToTurnIn v.2.0 or higher
Battery Estimator for Palm OS Battery Estimator for Palm OS - This program checks your Palm's battery level and converts it into an estimation of how long your Palm's battery will last based on a calibration to your specific device.. It is also Multitasker-enhanced, so you can see how much power you have left in any Multitasker application.
NOTICE:This application requires Multitasker 0
